I just got a notice that the book Scandalous Truths: Essays by and about Susan Howatch was ready to be mailed. I had ordered it shortly after someone on this...
I wanted to mention that Scandalous Truths: Essays by and about Susan Howatch seems to be much less expensive at Barnes and Noble than at Amazon. I am a B&N...
That's right! I saw it and enjoyed it, in spite of the goofiness (the Mafia Catholic Priest for example. lol) It does remind me of Howatch. Anybody else see...
Here, here...one heck of a show. Love all the secrets, trysts and what have you among the different members of Daniel's parish. Daniel's dad reminds me a bit...
The response from conservative groups (in the US anyway) to this show has been fascinating to me. I just celebrated my 15th wedding anniversary to a church...
TV drama about an Episcopal priest is a magnet for barbs and praise, but so far, not for viewers By Kevin Eckstrom RELIGION NEWS SERVICE Saturday, January 14,...
I'm CONSIDERING recommending the Starbridge/St Benets novels to my daughter. She's 18, very bright, very troubled, cradle Anglo-Catholic, and in a position to...
Marcellab, I'd recommend chronological order. There are so many layers upon layers upon layers to these characters that it really helps to know their...
I'd recommend starting with 'Glittering Images' too. I was totally captivated when I read it the first time. I did actually read the first of the St Benet's...
Marcellab I'm a new group member and anxious not to upset the protocol: (I'm not sure of the right way to proceed). Please let me know if this is not right. ...

Do you have them all on a bookshelf somewhere? If so, let her browse through them and decide herself to start at the beginning or with the one that appeals to...
... I agree with what everyone is saying, strange as that might sound. I read The Heartbreaker first and fell madly in love with Howatch's writing and the ...
THANK YOU all for your suggestions. My daughter's problems don't revolve round Anglo-Catholicism although it, the church in general and a woman's place in it...

I have just joined this group and i am so pleased to have found it! I've been a Susan Howatch fan for years and I've often thought how wonderful it would be to...
... Welcome to the group! I always enjoy talking about Susan Howatch so feel free to bend my ear online or off! I am reading High Flyer right now (again) and...
Marcella, I'm going to weigh in with Eileen in favor of Mystical Paths. It was my first Starbridge book, and I can't think of another that would have engaged...
Welcome, Deborah! I think you'll find that quite a few people share your opinion of Neville (as well as many who don't.) This group has been going on for some...
Martha, Thanks for the interesting article. (I left it in below for those who missed it.) Alas, when I tuned in last night, "The Book of Daniel" had been ...
Thanks for the welcome! Oddly enough, I've just re-read the Starbridge series. Scandalous Risks--being so closely linked with Aysgarth--is not a favorite, ...
Thanks so much for the warm welcome! I will definately spend some time exploring the site and checking out the older messages. By the way, one of my big...

All of the Mystical Paths mentions have made me eager to re-read it, and to speculate about the murder mystery that SH is writing - in terms of a whodunit, I...
Thanks Martha! That was a close one! My favorite writer RETIRE??? Horrifying thought! Like every devoted fan, I assume that my favorite writers are living like...
I'd love to see a mystery taking place at the Darrow's manor house (again!), this time with Nick and Alice there, maybe with a visiting Carta or Lewis. Better...
... Oh, I'm with you, Deborah! I'd love to see another book with Nick, Alice, Lewis, and poor Gilbert Tucker, who seemed like such a great character in High...
